Anyone own a Cartier Love bangle that's a large enough size to slip on and off?

I was told by a few SA's that you usually have to go 3 sizes bigger at least for most people to be able to slip it on and off. I looked into this also but the majority of people would have to get the bracelet much larger to be able to slide it on and off and then it is so large that it can almost call off and sits on the top of the hand more then on the wrist. The SA's that I talked to said they really don't recommend getting it that large as it would cause the bracelet to be banged around and potentially damaged more then a more fitted size or slightly loose. I have small wrists and hands and could not slide it off 2 sizes larger. You HAVE to try it on to see what works on you as everyone's wrist is a little different.

I only went up one size to easily slip it off. I have very small hands, but my wrist is fat right now. LOL.
When I was at my thinnest, my wrist and hand were very very small. Since I put on weight, my hand is fatter, but still small and my wrist is fatter and larger.
I know that this will soon be able to fall off, as my hands are small.
I just sold a smaller one to buy a larger one and may need the smaller one soon. Oy!

would be great if everyone who posted took pics of their LOVE on the lowest part of their wrist (i.e. how low it sits on the wrist/hand) and the highest part of their arm (i.e. how high up it goes towards the elbow part)

I would post but mine doesn't move very much. it goes as far down as the top of my hand and only moves 2 inches up my arm. it's a size 19 and my wrist is 7 inches.

that sounds like a size 16 fit for me. which i am contemplating at the moment, against a size 17 which moves about 3 inches + up my arm, and about 1 inch down my hand. aaahhh, dilemma dilemma ...

FYI I ended up with a 19 and can wiggle out of it relatively easily now that I've lost the baby chubb on my left wrist... on my right it would be hard but possible. I kind of like it that I can do that but kind of wish I'd had an 18 instead. It's a bit big. But pretty still!

Can't post a pic as I wiggled out of it before my flight!

my 19 fits pretty close to the wrist- it's not super tight it moves a few inches up and down but my WG that I use to have was a 20 and it was definitely loose.

when I went back to Cartier I asked them about the fit and they think it's the perfect love bracelet fit. now that I have had it for a few days i'm used to the fit but at first I was worried it was too tight.

with ym WG I used to bang it around a lot, but I think because this one sits closer it hasn't been banged around as much?

This might sound like a crazy question, but did anyone purposefully get a love bracelet in a size they can slip off? I realize this wouldn’t be recommended for stacking and the bracelet might get banged around more but it’s appealing to me to easily remove it. (I have reservations about the cuff).

I suggested this in a half joking way when I was trying on love bracelets many years ago. The SA said that was a very bad idea and she wouldn’t sell me one in that size.
I was nervous about wearing a bracelet 24/7 but I’ve worn mine since I got it 6 years ago except for when I had to remove it to have csections. I was between the 16 and 17 and went with the looser fit. It’s extremely comfortable and I love it.

Thank you for the info! I guess things I think I’d want to take it off for (massages, cleaning, etc) I’d feel less concerned about over time. And I’m guessing most people leave it on through airport security.

This totally crossed my mind before lol.

I know our dear @XCCX can slip the bracelet on off this way. Not sure if it’s on purpose but perhaps she can share.

I hardly wear my full love now. It gives me anxiety. I’ve purchased the cuff and to me it solves all problem.

I think it can also depend on your hand/wrist ratio. My hand is considered big for my small wrist (I wear jade bangle so it’s tricky on sizing to have the bangle sit not too low on my hand when my arm is down). This slip on off for Love won’t work for me.
